Boys volleyball makes history and Eagles clean up with many All-League honors

Share this:

The boys volleyball season came to an end over the weekend as the team came up short at the NorCal finals. The week started with a 3-0 win over St. Patrick/St. Vincent of Vallejo, followed by a spirited 3-2 win over CCS champs Carmel. However, the Eagles lost to Amador Valley in five games in the finals. Still, the year was a huge success as the Eagles made the CCS finals and NorCal finals for the first time in Harker history. Congrats on a great year!
